A few days ago there was this guy who was looking at me through the passenger window but still running the stop sign and not yielding.

I lived on the ground floor, and the idea of smashing headlights of some vehicles came to me many times.

The bike I use daily was $300. The car that we drive costs $30000. You know that bringing up anecdotes goes 2 ways?

That's the neat part, you don't.

The more you look, the worse it gets.

– Is supporting tray icons important? – What icons? Let the plugin community worry about that. – You're hired!

I assume you need to pay for exit node hosting + traffic, right? Which would be comparable to the price of a classic VPN.

Maybe in 60 years...

Seems like you have bigger issues than corporate surveillance.

I have to use Whatsapp, unfortunately. Are there any good alternatives to the default app on Android?

I'm worried about all the data it shares with Meta. I denied all permissions but this makes it less convenient, and the app probably still sends over the data that available without them.

 

I'm a software developer with a platform-independent stack (java / postgre / mysql / intellij / docker), I use a Linux distro. I have a workstation, but would like to be able to work away from home. Good battery life, small size, staying cool under load are the priorities; I don't need a lot of power. So I thought maybe I should try ARM?

My first idea was to get a [refurbished] MacBook Air and learn how to use MacOS, although I'd love to support something... less proprietary and more open. I've never used an ARM Linux distro or ARM laptops, and I'm not sure how good they are for my application.

What is your experience?
